Sleep Token is finding something you were missing and didn't realize it was missing until you found it.
I really think "The way that you were" could resonate with your musical background, but honestly anything of theirs is beautiful. #WORSHIP

Thank you! I’ll check that out
The Gospel musician tag is what caught my interest in this particular Sleep Token reaction, then I heard the Southern accent and knew it was gonna be a genuine one (Bama boy over here, grew around Baptist and the likes) but I'm curious as to what you think about how complex the spiritual and hymnal feel a lot of their music has and your interpretation of it in itself. Been a fan since the beginning and watching the growth in their music is astounding . Definitely dive in.

It was this song that made me download all their albums! 2months straight of Sleep Token…can’t get enough!
You should hear it Live. I was just ready to lay down on the floor and perish it was Sooooo Good. I'm 51 and this band has taken over my Spotify. Literally most everything else I have there has taken the backseat. Love them beyond belief. 🖤🖤🖤
There's quite a few tracks from Sleep Token you could say are very Gospel sounding, mainly their older stuff like "The Way That You Were" and "When The Bough Breaks". It's well worth an explore :)
To get the most from ST yo need to start at beginning with 1 ep and work through the discography to apriciate how emotional the final track of the album TMBTE Euclid is. It's a halleva ride. All killer no filla. Every track is 🔥

Euclid is a must, but you have to check out The Night Does Not Belong To God first. That was their first song on the first album and Euclid (last song on this album) wraps the trilogy up beautifully. It’ll make you appreciate Euclid even more.

I had the same experience - I just had to know what all the music sounded like. Go into it with no expectations and just a love of music in general and there really isn't a Sleep Token song that doesn't hit. Absolute geniuses.

Isn't that crazy? I have favourite Bands that stick with for a very looong time now and it's a stony path for "new" stuff to get near the holy grail but Sleep Token (and foremost with this song) overtook them all in like a minute!?!?😳

Right!? It's crazy.
They have to be classically trained. They don’t write songs, they write movements. Like a composer, they blend highs and lows. Moments to breath and moments to explode.
Ascensionism is one of my favorite songs from them. yes they do have other amazing songs. but this song is lyrically beautiful. it paints such an amazing picture.

I will! Appreciate the tip
The whole Sleep Token concept reminds me of a story I read once of an extremely jealous and authrocious Bronze Age Canaanite war god. He was one of the 70 children of the upper god ‘ El ‘ or ‘ Al ‘ and he manoeuvred his ancient father an rivalling brothers and sisters to become the ruler of the universe. If I’m not mistaken, one of his brothers was called ‘ Baal Zebul ‘ but I don’t remember that furousious an psychopathic war god’s name anymore.
You should react to their cover of "Hey Ya!" It is absolutely magical, how they are able to change the feel of the song.
Perfect circle vibez too

Ascension-ism
Vessel wright's EVERYTHING other than drums. ll does the percussion. Vessel also is co production on the masters of the songs. That's why he is seemless with the transitions.
You're funny. You said Ascension and ism separately. You can do it.

Do yourself a favour, go back to the EP’s and listen to them in order. Then move to Sundowning and do all three albums back to back in order. You will massively appreciate the experience of it. The albums form a trilogy and worth every second of your time.
in my opinion this album has a lot of religious undertones.

@TrevReacts their whole concept is that the singer had an ancient deity appear in a dream who's name could only translate as Sleep and Vessel, the singer, is to make Sleep known. While songs are obviously about love and such, that's where the lore of the religious aspect come from
What does diamonds in the trees , pentagrams in the night sky mean though
absolutely love the videos!!!! if you go through their whole discography i'll happily get mindfucked once again with you :)
Where'd you get the hat?

I love Sleep Token and this album was so good, but I got saved and God had to let me know that I can’t listen to them anymore because it’s opening realms , so I just wanted to let you know from one Christian to another, just be careful what you listen to, but this song and the Summoning is such an awesome song

I was wondering the same thing about what I'm listening to and also WHO I'm listening to. Sleep is the god that they worship, who apparently came to the lead singer in a dream, so now they worship that god. That's my grasp on it anyway. I'm cautious to give these guys the full go ahead to be a part of my playlist.
Is it ok to listen to sleep token as a Christian?
Let me get this straight. You are a gospel musician, but you don’t know the word ascension?
@TrevandErin

I know what the word means but it's hard to pronounce.
dont be sorry man. soak it all in. read the lyrics later but for now? just go on, or back it up whatever. You need time to process it then do that. Sleep token has everyone doing all those things
